The AI Is Smarter Than My 1990s Hospital Infrastructure — So Why Isn't It Running the System?

[00:00:00]You gave I think one of the most precise definitions of agentic AI that I have encountered and you described it as a system that pursues a defined goal, selects actions based on outputs and feedback [music] and then adjust its behavior. Now that's a system level view that most seale leaders haven't yet operationalized. Have you used any AI agents in radiology and is there anything that is compelling? I think we're still very early in agentic use.

[00:00:30]Most people aren't using it. Everyone's talking about it, but frankly, when I hear people talking about it, those sort of three things that I use to define it.

[00:00:38]One, is it being given a highle goal?

[00:00:40]Two, is it integrated into the system so it has access to different pieces of data and tools so it can enable like smart rule creation based on that goal?

[00:00:50]And three, can it monitor itself [music] to make corrections? And those things just don't really exist right now in healthcare. So I think a lot of people are talking about it and using it as a buzzword, but it's not really truly agentic. I think what people are calling [music] agentic is really more workflow rules that that can get pretty complex, but they're really [music] a constellation of if then rules that a human has to change. And if they act the same way [music] regardless of this what's happening in the system, then it's not agentic. Catch Nina Cotler on the Chief EI Officer podcast by Knowledge Networks.
